Liberty fabric birthday giveaway!

Wheeeeeee! Today it's my birthday, and you all know what that means. Yup, the streets are lined with people crowded around for the ticker tape parade in my honour. Confetti is filling the air, the float is about to set off and folks everywhere are chanting my name like I am the best. thing. ever.

Whaaaaat? Dead silence out there? Fear not - the streamers and balloons will be released as soon as everybody realises that birthdays at chez Jorth mean an awesome giveaway. Did anybody say LIBERTY?

Liberty #1

That's right, folks - it's a mega Liberty fabric giveaway! We've got 2m of Lantana! And other pieces lovingly saved from projects, all much bigger than a fat quarter. Look - more Lantana! And Tana Lawn! And Liberty Lifestyle! There's more Liberty fabric there than you can poke a stick at!

Liberty #2

Couldn't you just reach in and grab it? Mmmmmmm - Liiiiiiiberteeeeeeeee! All this could be yours - just follow my blog, leave a message wishing me the best birthday ever (with your email addy, natch) and I'll announce the winner Monday my time (AEST). Cos fabric this fine shouldn't be kept in a cupboard. It needs to be out there, man. Living the Liberty life!

I'm happy to post to Timbuktu if need be, so if your hot little hands are itching for some Liberty goodness, leave a comment!

  43. The weather hasn't been very kind to you for your birthday (it will be very soggy ticker tape!) A good day to sit by a roaring fire with a glass of red, do a little knitting then eat lots of cake.
    Enjoy your special day.
    I hope you get pressies that are even more lovely than the one you are giving away.

  89. Happy birthday! Very nice of you to share some of your liberty stash with us! I would have been happy with a fat quarter or two, but you really went for it! I have been eyeing Liberty and drooling over the wonderful projects I have come across the web made with their fabric, but have not ever actually touched, felt or worked with any, which, as I understand is the whole point, as the quality needs to be tactlly felt. So hooray for you (my small parade)!
